An [[EfW]] facility based upon conventional [[combustion]] technology and considered an [[ERF]] based on its [[R1]] status. The '''North Hykenham Energy from Waste facility''', as its also known, has a permitted operational capacity of 190,000 tonnes per annum, and is owned and operated by FCC Environment. The waste arrives on 10 and 25 tonne collection vehicles from the local Lincoln area and five [[transfer station]]s based in Boston, Gainsborough, Grantham, Louth and Sleaford. <ref name="NH">https://www.fccenvironment.co.uk/green-energy/lincoln/</ref> The facility processes primarily residual [[Household Waste]] and some [[Commercial Waste]]. | An [[EfW]] facility based upon conventional [[combustion]] technology and considered an [[ERF]] based on its [[R1]] status.
